At the village of Mindenmines, US 160 in Kansas from Pittsburg enters the state of Missouri in the southwest of the state. The road then continues east for 20 miles before crossing Interstate 49. Then the US 160 continues inland to Springfield, which is about 110 kilometers to the east. This route leads through an area with some hills and forests and a few villages. On the north side of Springfield it crosses Interstate 44. The road then runs through the west of the city and intersects on the south side with US 60, which forms the southern beltway.

History
US 160 was added to the US Highway network in 1930. The eastern terminus at the time was the city of Springfield. In 1954 this was changed to Poplar Bluff, giving US 160 a fairly long double numbering with US 65. US 160 has never been of great ongoing importance. Although the route serves the larger city of Springfield, US 160 does not connect the city with other important places.

On September 9, 1956, the Broadway Bridge over the Missouri River in Kansas City opened to traffic. Until 1991 this was still a toll bridge.
